[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 15, Volume 2] [Revised as of January 1, 2004] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 15CFR744.17] [Page 345-354] TITLE 15--COMMERCE AND FOREIGN TRADE CHAPTER VII--BUREAU OF INDUSTRY AND SECURITY, DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE PART 744_CONTROL POLICY: END-USER AND END-USE BASED--Table of Contents Sec. 744.17 Restrictions on certain exports and reexports of general purpose microprocessors for ``military end-uses'' and to ``military end-users.'' (a) General prohibition. In addition to the license requirements for anti-terrorism reasons set forth in part 742 of the EAR, you may not export or reexport commodities described in ECCN 3A991.a.1 on the CCL (``microprocessor microcircuits'', ``microcomputer microcircuits'', and microcontroller microcircuits having a ``composite theoretical performance'' (``CTP'') of 6,500 [[Page 346]] million theoretical operations per second (MTOPS) or more and an arithmetic logic unit with an access width of 32 bit or more), without a license if, at the time of the export or reexport, you know, have reason to know, or are informed by BIS that the item will be or is intended to be used for a ``military end-use,'' as defined in paragraph (d) of this section, in Country Group D:1 (see Supplement No. 1 to part 740 of the EAR); or by a ``military end-user,'' as defined in paragraph (e) of this section, in Country Group D:1. This license requirement does not apply to exports or reexports of items for the official use by personnel and agencies of the U.S. Government or agencies of a cooperating government. See Sec. 740.11(b)(3) of the EAR for definitions of ``agency of the U.S. Government'' and ``agency of a cooperating government''. (b) Additional prohibition on exporters or reexporters informed by BIS. BIS may inform an exporter or reexporter, either individually by specific notice or through amendment to the EAR, that a license is required for export or reexport of items described in ECCN 3A991.a.1 to specified end-users, because BIS has determined that there is an unacceptable risk of diversion to the uses or users described in paragraph (a) of this section. Specific notice is to be given only by, or at the direction of, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration. When such notice is provided orally, it will be followed by a written notice within two working days signed by the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration. The absence of any such notification does not excuse the exporter or reexporter from compliance with the license requirements of paragraph (a) of this section. (c) License review standards. There is a presumption of denial for applications to export or reexport items subject to this section. (d) Military end-use. In this section, the phrase ``military end- use'' means incorporation into: a military item described on the U.S. Munitions List (USML) (22 CFR part 121, International Traffic in Arms Regulations) or the International Munitions List (IML) (as set out on the Wassenaar Arrangement website at http://www.wassenaar.org); commodities listed under ECCN's ending in ``A018'' on the Commerce Control List (CCL) in Supplement No. 1 to part 774 of the EAR; or any item that is designed for the ``use'', ``development'', ``production'', or deployment of military items described on the USML, the IML, or commodities listed under ECCN's ending in ``A018'' on the CCL. Supplement No. 1 of this part lists examples of `military end-use.' (e) Military end-user. In this section, the term ``military end- user'' means the national armed services (army, navy, marine, air force, or coast guard), as well as the national guard and national police, government intelligence or reconnaissance organizations, or any person or entity whose actions or functions are intended to support ``military end-uses'' as defined in paragraph (d) of this section. (f) Exceptions. No License Exceptions apply to the prohibitions described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section.
